Yun Zhixin readily agreed: "We have some family members in our unit, we'll see how to arrange for them to come over."

The soldiers nearby nodded in agreement. Yes, such a good thing shouldn't be given to others. Besides, the conditions in Pinghe Village are already quite good given the current situation. If their families could be accommodated here, their comrades would feel even more at ease.

After finishing their meal and learning more about the village, Yun Zhixin and his team didn't linger and prepared to move on to the next village for further investigation.

"Will you still come this way then?" Second Grandma asked as she heard her son and his family were about to leave.

"They probably won't go this way. They might circle back from the other side. Besides checking the situation in each village, they also need to check the safety of the surrounding area."

"Couldn't you rest for one night before leaving? Why are you in such a rush?" Grandma Er looked at her son with great reluctance. He had only been at home for a short time and hadn't even exchanged a few words with many family members.

"Mom, it really doesn't work. I'll try to come this way again next time. If I can get leave, I'll definitely come to see you then." Yun Zhixin hugged his mother and wife, saluted his father, and led the way out. The other soldiers also saluted the Yun family before following them.

At this moment, Liu Huiqing rushed into the room, took out the underwear she had prepared for him from the kang cabinet, and chased after him.

"Zhixin, wait a minute," she called to her husband, quickly went to his side, and stuffed the clothes into his backpack. "These are the clothes I made for you before, take them with you to change into."

Their eyes met, and everything they wanted to say was read in their eyes.

Yun Xun and Yun Tao followed them out until they reached the other side of the lake. Along the way, Yun Zhixin learned more about everything that had happened in the village since the earthquake. Now he had more confidence in the village; as long as they were united, they could overcome any difficulty.

"It's getting late, you should head back now." Yun Zhixin looked at his son and nephew. After this period of training, the once rebellious boy was now capable of taking on a family responsibility.

"Then we're going back. Don't worry about us at home. If you can take a vacation and come back, please do so. Mom misses you." After saying this, Yunxun pulled Yuntao and ran back.

"That brat." After cursing, he looked up at the sky and tried hard to force back the tears that were about to flow.

The village still holds its previous opinion regarding the potential arrival of people. If people must be assigned to the village, the arrangements will be made according to the previous agreements.

Days passed, and the crops in the fields, perhaps due to lack of sunlight, looked rather listless. Everyone was very anxious, but there was nothing they could do.

The hot and humid weather, coupled with anxiety and stress, has caused many people to fall ill.

Fortunately, the herbs that every household used to grow were used in Yunnan medicine. Based on the properties of traditional Chinese medicine, a new prescription was formulated. Although traditional Chinese medicine takes effect slowly, the sick people are gradually getting better.

When Sicheng had free time, he would also wander around the nearby mountains and forests, hoping to see if the animals in the mountains had survived this ordeal.

That day, he got up early as usual and ran along the mountain path. Not long after he started climbing, he saw a dense patch of wild mushrooms growing in the distance. He only recognized a few types of wild mushrooms that were commonly seen in the market, and he didn't really recognize this patch in front of him.

As he drove higher up the mountain, the more wild mushrooms appeared, some even growing in dense clusters. On his way down, he picked a few of each kind, intending to take them back to his mother-in-law to identify. If they were edible, they would be a source of income for the village.

As usual, when Yun's mother saw her son-in-law return, she quickly called everyone to prepare for the meal.

"Mom, take a look at these mushrooms and see if they're edible."

Looking at the various mushrooms Si Cheng had placed on the table, Mama Yun was pleasantly surprised. "These are pine needle mushrooms, trumpet mushrooms, gray cap mushrooms, round mushrooms, and chanterelle mushrooms. Where did you find so many mushrooms?"

She then pointed to several of them: "These white frost cup umbrellas, and Jie Xiaoru's, are not edible; they are poisonous."

“The mountains are full of them now. I only picked a few kinds. If they are edible, I will let everyone know so we can all go up the mountain together. That way, we can cook more dishes.” Si Cheng told his parents-in-law what he had seen.

"Let's eat breakfast first, and then we'll inform everyone." As she spoke, she placed the cooled porridge on Junjun and Lele's special dining table, put bibs around their necks, and told them to eat by themselves.

Soon the sound of gongs rang out in the village again. When everyone heard that they could go up the mountain to pick mushrooms, they were very happy, finally chasing away some of the worries about whether the crops would yield a harvest.

Apart from the elderly and children, every household took out bags and baskets from their homes and went up the mountain together.

Everyone acted together as a family unit. The old man pointed out which mushrooms were non-poisonous and told them the key ones. As for the ones that were uncertain, it was best to bring them back and ask before picking them.

Yun's mother stayed home to take care of Junjun and Lele. This time, Yun's father also went with them. After all, he had lived here for so long and knew about some poisonous fungi.

Looking at the mushrooms covering the mountain, each family kept a safe distance, each responsible for a section. In this way, in no time, everyone had a bountiful harvest.

"This is really strange. I've never seen so many fungi before. How come they're suddenly all over the mountains?" Yunqi didn't even dare to stand up and look ahead. There were just too many of them. She had a bit of trypophobia and couldn't help but rub the goosebumps on her hands.

"Don't look far ahead, just squat down and tidy up this area in front of you," Yun's father instructed, knowing his daughter's little quirk.

Si Cheng looked at her with some concern: "Why don't you go back first? You'll feel very uncomfortable like this."

"It's okay, just don't keep going to see them. You'll get used to it and it won't be so scary." Yunqi insisted on not going back. He was joking; if they missed out on such delicious wild mushrooms now, they might not be able to find them again.

Seeing that Yunqi really didn't want to go back, they didn't try to persuade him any further. Sicheng quickly picked the fungi while sharing his guess. "It's probably because the weather has been quite hot and humid lately, and the trees and bushes were all flattened by the ice, which provides an excellent environment for these fungi to survive, hence the large number of them."

Yunqi watched as her family of three packed several bags in no time. Seeing that everyone around them was picking mushrooms and hadn't noticed them, she secretly dragged a few bags into her spatial storage and then emptied the bags out.

When Yun's father discovered this, he glared at her fiercely and signaled that she could not do it again.
